I thought this might be a good thing to post about.

Suggested Items Compiled from the group...

Tow Straps
Tree saver
First Aid kit
Flashlight (better yet extra Lights on your X!)
Towing reciever pintle (or rear towing point)
FRS radio
Tire pressure gauge
A full size spare
Food/Water are always a good thing to have
Camera is a must!
Boots are helpful, maybe a change of clothes
Work Gloves
Extra D rings
Pull block
Don't forget some practical tools
Something to air down your tires, on board airor a small electric pump.
SPARE PARTS for the hadcore, half shaft, torsion bars,
Plastic (zip) ties
Duct tape.
Fire Extinguisher


Other suggestions?

An FRS radio is what most of us use to communicate on the trails and it helps ALOT. A CB is also very useful to have...depending on if anyone else in the group has one.

That's a good list to start with. You don't need to go wild to start with but as you get into it, you will see more of what you need. An FRS or CB radio is important.

I bring tons of tools: sockets, breaker bar, box end wrenches, adjustable wrenches, hammer, pliers, dykes, screwdrivers, allen wrenches, and others.

Tow strap (with no hooks), tree saver, extra D rings, pull block, and gloves.

Something to air down your tires and tire guage, on board air.

Spare parts, half shaft, torsion bars, plastic ties, duct tape.
:D

LOL :D :D

don't forget extra batteries for flashlights, especially when your in the woods, and extra flashlight would be good too, if its winter wheeling...i bring a blanket, extra jackets, hoodys, shirts, pants, because you never know if you might have to make a night out of it if something happens...cell phone charger, power inverter
